COMMON-MODE INSENSITIVE CURRENT-SENSING TOPOLOGY IN FULL-BRIDGE DRIVER WITH HIGH-SIDE AND LOW-SIDE ENERGY MATCHING CALIBRATION

摘要

A system may include a Class-D stage comprising a first high-side switch coupled between a supply voltage and a first output terminal of the Class-D stage, a second high-side switch coupled between the supply voltage and a second output terminal of the Class-D stage, a first low-side switch coupled between a ground voltage and the first output terminal, and a second low-side switch coupled between the ground voltage and the second output terminal. The system may also include current sensing circuitry comprising a first sense resistor coupled between the first low-side switch and the ground voltage, such that an output current through a load coupled between the first output terminal and the second output terminal causes a first sense voltage proportional to the output current across the first sense resistor when the first low-side switch is activated. The current sensing circuitry may also include a second sense resistor coupled between the second low-side switch and the ground voltage, such that an output current through the load causes a second sense voltage proportional to the output current across the second sense resistor when the second low-side switch is activated. The system may also include measurement circuitry configured to measure the first sense voltage and the second sense voltage to determine the output current.
